Tweet disappears from Cheney's Twitter feed as Russia investigation ramps up

U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney deleted a social media post Wednesday that praised the termination letter that President Donald Trump sent to former FBI Director James Comey.

“Best. Termination. Letter. Ever.,” the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney wrote on Twitter, with a copy of Trump’s message.

The original post was up for a week. It was removed Wednesday, according to Politwoops, a project of ProPublica that tracks public officials’ social media.

The newspaper asked {her spokesman, Joe Jackson} why Cheney’s tweet was deleted. He did not reply.

Screen shots are time consuming, but I guess we need to be tracking all of them for future reference.
